Man we had an effin' busy last couple days. Thursday was Thanksgiving. Wednesday night we were up till about 5am fixing Ryan's computer, after he got some weird malware virus. It was an IE plugin called something like MIRAR NN_Webband. Thursday we did the normal Eighmee n' Dave Thanksgiving thang: got up around 10:30, go to my grandparents around noon, have dinner there (it was also Alex and Marsha's birthdays), then around 2 we came back home and slept for an hour before heading to Susan's new place in Lodi for seconds on the food. Thanksgiving evening was thankfully fairly quiet back here at home.

Yestday, Friday, was pretty damn busy too. We slept in quite late which made for a good recovery. Went to the store, Smartfoods, and got stuff for Eighmee to make a pumpkin cake. (Which regardless of what she says, turned out pretty good) Andrew, Ryan and Kitt were over in the early afternoon. Mike Lockwood, and his girlfriend Heidi were in town for the holidays, and came over around 9ish. Sean, still having to work at Gamestop, came over around 10:30. So for a few hours we had an extremely busy apartment. :o) Eventually Mike, Heidi, Sean and Ryan pushed off, and left Eighmee, Kitt, and I watching Ice Age until about 2am.

Yesterday my mom called and let me know that Sunday I get to come over and help her type her last speech for school. This means today, Saturday, I need to completely finish my report on Nicaragua for Spanish class. Joy. All right, time to take a shower and get ready for the day.

Peace out.

I just got back from Vegas yesterday. I had a good time there with Alex. Sunday we took ryan to rent a car. He got a maroon trailblazer. Oh yeah, I don't think I've mentioned, that Ryans car (97 Civic HX) got ganked from outside our apartment last week. That would be why he needed a car. heh

monday eighmee and ryan took me to alex's, from there his father in law took us to the sacramento airport. we landed in vegas just before noon, where we rented a car. it was originally supposed to be a Kia Rio, but they upgraded us to a Ford Focus. cool right? We walked out to the car, and it was a fuckin bright yellow, gay ass, focus hatch back, which alex dubbed the sissy car. we stayed in at the Luxor hotel (cool pyramid shaped / egypt themed hotel) a couple miles from the airport.

Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday we spent in Comdex checking out the expo's and the seminars we had access to. During the off hours we did a lot of eating, a little slot machines, and lots of walking and checking out the hotels / casinos in the area. we saw a pretty cool girlie show. On wednesday evening, the day before we left, we were leaving comdex and I kinda fucked up the rental car. I turned left when leaving the expo onto the las vegas blvd, running our little sissy car over the island in the middle of the road. The right front tire blew out, but we were able to get it to a service station and fixed before it was time to return it.

I just found this post written by my dad in an online guestbook talking about NDE. The URL is http://globalguest.com/gb1/NDE/guestbook.html He was a little 'out-there' but I thought I'd share:

I don't believe in gods, at least the corn gods of 10,000 years ago. Jesus brought in a new era, god is love,something unknown before his time. I have been following Thomas Daniel Nehrer.net personal experiences, which I feel to be helpfull to me.,what you hold in your mind is what you experience in reality,but not superficialy,but the totality of what you are. Your account has been helpful. Thanks!! imjerry

Monday: Wow- what a past week. As of last Wednesday Eighmee's out of her job at Software Etc. She's been bummin' a little bit. Saturday we helped Sean move out of his mom's deplex and into Kitt's apartment. That took the majority of the day, and it started storming and heavily raining almost as soon as we finished. Afterward Eighmee, Sean, Ryan, Kitt, and I all piled into the Pilot and went to KFC and Gordito Burrito for some eats. We all ate in the car in front of Gordito Burrito while it was raining like hell; it was pretty fun. Sunday, yesterday, mom wanted me to come over to put some new front wheels on her lawn mower, but Eighmee and I had plans to go up to her parents house instead. We did. It was the first time we'd been there in several months, and it was good seeing all the dogs again; they're starting to look a little old, and grey around the edges. Tomorrow, Tuesday, is Veterans Day which is a holiday from both work and school (yeaaa!). Mom called last night and I promised her I'd come over tomorrow and finally fix her mower. I've also got quite a lot of Spanish homework to take care of tomorrow, since Thursday will be the last Spanish class I have prior to going to Las Vegas next week. Speaking of which, Alex and I got our tickets for Comdex and everything seems to be in order. One week away: I can't wait! :o)
